Merry, Merry!






We started this Christmas off better than last year. I remember getting the last gift placed under the tree and going to bed a whole 45 minutes before the kids woke up at 7 a.m. That's right, we didn't finish wrapping until after 6:00. I don't know why we wait until Christmas Eve to wrap everything, but we do. Anyway, this year we actually got to bed and slept for 4 hours before the kids woke up! We had a nice day and enjoyed playing with all our new fun stuff.
Today, we got out of our pajamas and headed to Home Depot to pick up one of Mike's gifts....a snow blower! Yippee! I think we just guaranteed no more snow for the winter now that we are prepared. :) After that, we went to lunch, did a little shopping and went to see Marley and Me. Oh. My. Goodness. What a tear jerker that was! Such a cute movie and I totally cried my eyes out. At one point, we heard someone literally sobbing. We highly recommend it, but bring along the kleenex!

Glad your days went well. We loved Marley and Me also. Now the kids really want a dog. Enjoy the rest of the holiday. Good luck with the no more snow thing. I have a feeling that you have not really seen the end of it yet.

Looks like Santa's Magic Key worked!! I LOVE your new title picture! I have a pic of Chris and Em playing GH that I am going to post soon. Her shirt says, "My Dad ROCKS" that she bought with some of her Christmas money :)
